Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love this controller. Feels better then trying to use the joycon on the controller attachments. The charge in the controller is also really good. The controller isn’t amazingly heavy either. I can say i have no complaints about this controller.

Now of the trinity of console gaming (Microsoft, Nintendo, Sony), Nintendo has always been the ones to be the most daring. This gave them the money printer known as the Wii while admittedly also giving them the nightmare that was the Wii U (that however wasn't actually a result of lack of innovation but more the result of really bad marketing, an almost non-exist third party presence and a bit to do with the comparative technical specifications of the console compared to the original PlayStation 4 and original Xbox One (it didn't even come close to the Xbox One, Actually, come to think about it, the Switch is needless to say actually more powerful than the Wii U and the console itself is really just a small tablet that has a dock to output to a TV). Needless to say Switch is not the Wii U and the Joy Con are prime examples of Nintendo's creative thinking and are actually the result of feedback from the Wii Remote. But the Joy Con may be a headache to some. The face buttons (A,B,X,Y) are literally the size of the 3DS one's and more importantly the D-pad is a split one instead of full not to mention even in the Grip the Joy-Con might be a bit small. If you find these to be problems, then the Pro Controller is for you. It's a more traditional control that fixes all these problems and it still has all the functionality of the Joy-Con. So yeah this will be your friend if you want a controller other than the Joy-Con in the Joy-Con Grip.

Love the pro controller. This is a substitute for the small joycon. Procontroller fits better in your hands and the charge lasts for ever. Most importantly is after over a year of use, I haven't noticed any drift in the joy stick. Also this controller can be paired with a PC computer.

My 14yr old ask for a wireless controller so I got him this one and he says it works just great. It's been almost 2 years since we got it and it still works really good.

It’s expensive, but it is a higher quality controller compared to the rest of the wireless ones in the market. I was having trouble with the joycons while the switch is docked - it would disconnect every few minutes. I already had a (slightly cheaper) wireless controller, but needed another for 2p. No connection issues and solid battery life, so I can’t complain!

The controller looks amazing as it is, but it feels nice to hold, and works very well. The battery lasts insanely long. I've been a huge fan of Xbox controllers, but I think this might take the cake, I am in love with how this controller feels and functions. and the subtle transparency in the plastic adds a really nice effect! I bought the splatoon one for my friend and now i bought this one for myself.

Honestly the most durable wireless controller, and I’ve bought a lot of Switch controllers before because I’m an esports coach.

Comfortable controller. I prefer this for pc over the xbox controller.

This controller feels really good - better than the PS4 and Xbox One controllers - PLUS it has a lot of nice features such as HD rumble and Amiibo reader built right in! Great large buttons for extended gaming sessions, and the battery lasts 40 hours! While the joy-con controllers are great that come with the system, this is perfect to have as a 2nd (or 3rd) controller! Highly recommended if you can find it!

Excellent controller! The shipping was fast and great condition! Best Buy is my go to!

I have fond memories of many Nintendo controllers throughout the years, but this one may take the cake as the best. It is certainly the most comfortable, and has the better battery life over its WiiU counterpart. Been using it with Zelda and Mario Kart, and its a huge improvement over the joy-cons. I'm not thrilled about the price, but once you start using it, its definitely money well spent. Recommended!

This controller is a must. It feels great in my hands and adds a level of control that was missing using the default joy con controller. This pairs easily with a Nintendo switch And holds a charge for a good amount of time The rumble is a little funny it’s a very gentle vibration and unlike controllers for other consoles

Picked this up because I was fed up with the drift issues of the joycon controllers and I refuse to purchase anymore of those. I was worried this might feel bulky or heavy but it's quite comfortable and easy to use. Battery life is pretty good too. I wish I would have bought this sooner instead of wasting money on the joycon controllers.

A little pricey at $70 but if you're going to be gaming consistently and you have problems with the original controllers then I think it's worth it. My hands are men's size small and I had problems with the Joy-Cons being too small. This controller is a little larger and much more comfortable. Also the charge lasts for a very long time so I rarely have to worry about it.

Much better/comfortable than the joy cons. Much like the Wii U pro controller, buy with a nice matte finish, sturdier build, and amazing battery life (three days! Same as the Wii U but still great) Highly recommend. The d-pad is especially much better if you play platformers, retro games, or 8/16/32-bit indie games.

Definitely one of my best investments both in Switch and in Best Buy, I will never regret having made this purchase and I hope to be able to do it again soon.

Started playing the Switch again after buying this controller. Nice build qualtiy and connectivity has been perfect throughout. I would highly recommend this controller for the more traditional (older) gamer. Controller feels familiar.

Worth the purchase for your switch. This controller is much better than the Power A. It feels great playing all sorts of games with this controller. Battery is also really good (and easy to recharge) compared to the joycons which were driving me crazy how fast the battery on those go.

Feels like a Xbox One controller and buttons are layout pretty similar too. Way more comfortable playing with for long periods of time versus the joycons. Battery life is really good too, especially when comparing it to the PS4 controller. I would say it also has the strongest rumble out of any of this generation controllers as well.
